Planning for July and 80s Retro


Posted on 06/28/2023 at 07:52 AM | Filed Under Blogs

Yeah Nintendo likes to brag about how popular Game & Watch was back then, but I don't remember seeing them until AFTER the NES came out.  And then the only ones I saw were Super Mario Bros., a Mario Bros. one, Donkey Kong, and I saw a Zelda one at a store but it was too expensive.  The Game & Watch Galleries on the Game Boy and GBA are really good, though.  You should try them if you have a chance.

I know I've said this before, but the Activision Anthology on PS2 rivals the PS1 Namco Museums as far as quality and presentation goes.

My cousins had an Intellivision when we were little.  My cousin and I would play Frog Bog for what seemed like hours.  Not sure why that entertained us so much back then.  There's a Intellivision collection on the PS2 that's pretty good, too.

I hate to defend Nintendo on this, but at least with amiibo you get a really cool figure to go with all that DLC crap.  My only big complaint is that they make them hard to get sometimes!

I scanned the Twilight Princess Link Wolf amiibo into Tears of the Kingdom and got a TON of meat.  So that was pretty useful.  I'm horrible at combat in that game, so I make Link eat a lot of food.  He should have a big belly by now.  I know he runs around a lot, but that boy should be as big as a house by the time he saves Zelda.

I have them all, too, but I probably won't be digging them out again any time soon.

What Happened to Movie Tie-in Games? (Give me your thoughts)


Posted on 06/25/2023 at 07:48 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I think movie tie-in games got a reputation for being so bad that companies just stopped making them.  Plus the licenses for those properties were probably getting so expensive that it wasn't worth the cost anymore.  For a while you only saw movie tie-ins in mobile games, but now you don't even see that anymore.

I wanted to get Park Beyond because Namco made it and one of the things you can get are Pac-Man themed roller coasters and gift shops and decorations and costumed characters!  I wanted to make my own Pac-Man theme park!  But unfortunately the game is only on X/S and PS5, two consoles I don't have.  I know you gotta make the transition to a new console at some point, but I don't see why a park builder couldn't have been on PS4 or Switch as well.

When you scan an amiibo into Tears of the Kingdom, you can get a random bunch of items that can be useful.  If you scan a Zelda specific amiibo, you'll also get a treasure chest that might contain something exclusive, like a pattern for your hanglider.

I liked getting the giant sized AR card so I could take a picture of Mario that looked as big as me.

Some arcade ports on the 2600 were pretty bad, though.  Like Burgertime.  And of course Pac-Man.

I feel like I played it somewhere, but maybe I just imagined it.  They all kind of play the same.
